I will never forget that Thursday morning in 2007 when my Co-worker called me & said "BRUCE" was on the phone. #1 I had a horrible week my heart had been broken & I didn't feel like playing. I had been crying all week it was just enough to come in to work without falling apart. #2 this particular co-worker would often ask about "Bruce" 1/2 way joking but truly interested. A little background. Bruce & I had a relationship that ended 6 years prior. So it would annoy me when "Stan" & my Mom would OFTEN ask I wonder where Bruce is. My response would always of course be "who cares" But Stan & my Mom held put hope LOL. So when Stan said Bruce was on the phone I was like quit playing. He transfers the call & I hear his voice & my heart starts beating....really fast! And the Taurus (bull) in me instantly got defensive. him: Hi this is Bruce, Me: yea..LOL. Bruce began to tell me why he called. I wont tell you what he said but instantly tears began to fall. His words were everything I needed to hear. The dark cloud began to lift & the wall around my heart had began to crumble. I was shaking. I had just poured out my heart to God & only God a few days earlier. And every word that he said was what I had whispered to God through tears. At the end of the conversation he says, I don't want anything from you I just wanted you to know how I felt & if if would be OK can he take me out to dinner. I told my family & my friends & the only response I got was GREAT! And that following weekend I went to New Orleans for Essence music festival with 2 friends & all they kept saying was watch you & Bruce going to get married. I denied it...for a week LOL but it was evident we were meant to be together. It became more evident when about a month later while laying on the bed watching TV he looked at me & said "shorty" (my nickname he gave me) YOU ARE MY WIFE! and the rest is history.
